Yeah, but what Ian's story did for me was open a window through which I see that Amazon is doing this sort of thing to a lot of other people.
And as you pointed out in one of your posts, it's not just what they are doing, it's how they do it - cutting everyone off with no avenue of appeal, discontinuing the accounts so that books and movies bought and paid for can't be retrieved, refusing to refund the balances represented by gift cards, & so forth. This is not behavior I value in companies I buy things from.
So even if Ian is pulling the wool over our eyes, he's revealed something about Amazon that I will remember in making my buying decisions. I no longer regard them as a reliable and trustworthy seller.
